NOT MINE BUT GOD’S WAY

NOT MINE BUT GOD’S WAY

Often times I’ll try to do things my way

And usually get frustrated beyond belief

I should be turning all of it over to God

And not be trapped with so much grief

Perhaps if the circumstances were different

And strokes had not left me legally blind

It creates quite a few problems because

Many times it becomes matter over mind

Although I’m aware that I have limitations

I need to be independent to a certain degree

So I attempt to handle many situations by myself

But more often than not it will backfire on me

I just need to accept my visual loss

Let God take over and let things go

Putting more effort into what I can do

In God my confidence will only grow

It’s an easy thing to say ”just let go.”

But it’s really so much harder to do

I always think that I can handle it

Both God and I know that it’s not so

I need to pray for wisdom and understanding

God will surely hear and honor my request

If a situation should arise that I can’t handle

I’ll trust in The Lord to do whatever is best
